Global warming has become a worldwide issue that affects all life on Earth, as well as the operations of businesses across various industries from upstream to downstream. HaadThip is fully aware of the current situation and has taken proactive measures to address and mitigate the potential impacts on its business. As part of our efforts to help solve this problem, the company has prioritized the search for new innovations and alternative energy sources that are both clean and sustainable.
One of the key projects initiated by HaadThip is the generation of electricity from solar energy through the installation of over 9,000 solar panels, including Solar Rooftop panels, On-Grid solar panels, and Solar Floating panels. This initiative not only contributes to pollution reduction but also leads to significant long-term operational cost savings and energy cost efficiencies, further demonstrating our commitment to adapting to and responding to climate change. This approach not only aids in environmental preservation but also enhances the company’s image as a sustainability-conscious business. HaadThip has also laid out plans to expand the installation of solar panels on office buildings and warehouses at the Hatyai Plant, with the goal of further promoting the use of clean energy as a replacement for coal-based energy. The company expects to increase the proportion of solar energy used to 20% by 2027.

Water Management
Water is a vital resource in our business operations, and managing it efficiently while minimizing waste is crucial for the long-term success and sustainability of our company. Recognizing the importance of this, HaadThip has established dedicated teams to oversee water management and reduce resource loss. We've also set clear goals for improving our water management practices. As HaadThip relies heavily on groundwater for production, inefficient water use could not only hinder our business growth but also negatively impact the communities and ecosystems that share these water resources. To ensure sustainable water management and to reduce our environmental footprint, we regularly assess the risks associated with our water sources. These assessments are guided by The Coca-Cola Company's standards and are conducted in collaboration with experts from Prince of Songkla University every five years. Our water sources evaluation are under the standards set by the Department of Groundwater Resources and the Water Framework Directive (WFD). These evaluations help us monitor and analyze water conditions, both in normal times and during crises, allowing us to prevent and mitigate any potential impacts on our operations, the surrounding communities, and the environment. The most recent risk assessment revealed that the groundwater sources we use are located in a low-risk area and exhibit low levels of water stress.
